NOTElThe detectability of the radar sensors has its limitations. The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) System
may not operate properly under the following conditions:
lIce, snow, or soil adheres to the rear bumper surface around the radar sensors.lDuring adverse weather conditions such as rain or snow, or under conditions where water is
sprayed.
lThe rear bumper area around the radar sensors is blocked by foreign material (such as
stickers or a bicycle carrier).
lThe radar sensors do not detect human, animal, shopping cart, bicycle, or static objects such as
fences.
lThe radar sensors may not detect all types of vehicles around your vehicle, especially the
following types of vehicles:
lMotorcycleslVehicles with body shapes that radar may not reflect such as a flatbed trailer with no cargo.lVehicles with lower body height such as sports cars.lAlthough the system may detect objects on the road side such as parked vehicles or guardrails and
operate the warning light/beep, it does not indicate a malfunction.
lIf the vehicle is driven on a road with less traffic and few vehicles that the radar sensors can
detect, the system may pause (the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) OFF indicator light in the
instrument panel flashes). However, it does not indicate a malfunction.
lThe following conditions may affect the visibility of the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning
lights on the outside mirror, making it difficult to confirm the illumination of the lights:
lIce or snow adheres to the surface of the outside mirrors.lThe door window glass is tinted.lThe radar sensors are equipped inside the rear bumper. (page 4-129)lHave the radar sensors inspected at an Authorized Mazda Dealer if any shock is applied to the
rear bumper, even in a minor accident. If the vehicle is driven with a damaged radar sensor, the
system may not operate properly resulting in an accident.
lFor repairs or paintwork around the radar sensors, or replacement of the bumper, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
lThe radar sensors of the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system may be regulated under the radio
wave related laws of the country where the vehicle is driven. The sensors in this system are
approved for use in the U.S.A. (including territories), Canada, and Mexico. If a vehicle with a
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system is driven in a country other than the U.S.A., Canada, or
Mexico, the system has to be turned off using the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) OFF switch.
